Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Time flies, and the years pass swiftly.

In a flash, two years have gone by, and the grotto heaven has expanded considerably.

Several spirit lakes and spirit mountains are situated in the middle, while lush green grasslands have started appearing at the edges.

Due to the Tier Four spiritual vein and spiritual spring, even the ordinary pastures have grown exceptionally lush.

The spiritual food that Ye Jingcheng feeds, long-horned deer and forest pigs, are now freely dashing across the grasslands, occasionally raising their heads and bellowing.

Of course, the liveliest area now is naturally around the spirit mountain and the Spirit Medicine Garden.

The peach tree’s body is once again covered in vibrant peach blossoms, and at the request of the peach wood, the Golden Quenching Essence Fruit has almost simultaneously bloomed with pale white spirit flowers. The number of flowers also surpasses those on the Star Pear Wood, making the Peach Wood Demon nod repeatedly, as this amount is just right, more than other spirit plants but less than its own.

Thus, it rarely scolds the Golden Quenching Fruit Wood Demon.

A considerable number of Five Poison Bees are busily gathering spirit honey, but without the Poison Flowers for so long, these Five Poison Bees have almost turned into ordinary Spirit Bees, no longer possessing deadly poison.

However, due to low consumption, their numbers have greatly increased.

In the spirit lake, the Moon Spirit Pearls have grown much larger, floating on the water’s surface, occasionally vanishing without a trace due to the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon’s disturbances.

At the mountaintop, Ye Jingcheng has reached a crucial point, and in front of him lies a late-stage Tier Three Dream-Devouring Worm, exhaling a large amount of Nightmare Qi that envelops Ye Jingcheng.

Inside the pavilion, the last strand of Earth Yin Qi swirls around Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Jingcheng’s face is filled with pain, as if his divine soul is trembling, but upon closer sensing, one would discover that Ye Jingcheng’s divine soul is continuously strengthening.

Before long, with the falling of a howling sound, the Earth Yin Qi is completely exhausted.

And at this moment, Ye Jingcheng abruptly opens his eyes.

A surge of divine sense spreads out in all directions.

"One hundred zhang!"

"One thousand zhang!"

"Ten thousand zhang!"

"Thirty thousand zhang!"

...

Ultimately reaching as far as fifty-one thousand eight hundred zhang.

The normal range of divine sense for the early stage of the Golden Core is between ten thousand zhang and twenty thousand zhang, and for the middle stage of the Golden Core, it is between twenty thousand zhang and fifty thousand zhang.

And now, Ye Jingcheng’s divine soul has broken through to the late stage of the Golden Core, allowing his divine sense range to surpass the limit of fifty thousand zhang.

With this divine soul breakthrough, Ye Jingcheng feels the pressure of his soul contract significantly ease.

The whole person feels much lighter, no longer as burdened as before.

He even feels that his cultivation level is loosening considerably.

"This is the divine soul power of the late stage of the Golden Core!" Ye Jingcheng compared slightly and was overjoyed beyond words.

The cultivation level of the early stage of the Golden Core, with the divine soul of the late stage, is enough to astonish many if word gets out.

And to date, he is just one hundred and eighteen years old.

Now he feels that he can even break through to the middle stage of the Golden Core before the Golden Core Ceremony.

He then took out the Blood Soul Bead and found that the soul power consumption for using it once had greatly improved, no longer leaving him exhausted and greatly reducing combat power after deploying a single Blood Pearl Illusion Realm.

Ye Jingcheng tested for a long time before descending from the pavilion, and within the grotto heaven, a group of spirit beasts also gathered by his side.

Ye Jingcheng had been in seclusion for some time, and as per his usual habit, after each seclusion, he would release spirit pills and treasure light.

So the group of spirit beasts would wait early on in anticipation.

Even the Wood Demon Stone Spirit would line up.

They were all filled with anticipation, especially the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, its mouth opened massively, and it was at the front. Under its abyssal maw, no demon beast or wood demon dared to stand in front of it.

Ye Jingcheng glanced around and noticed that the Roc Fish and White-Browed Cyan Wolf were absent, directing his gaze toward the distance.

The Roc Fish had settled at the bottom of the spirit lake, now completely engulfed by spiritual light, clearly also starting to break through to Tier Four.

Further away, the body of the White-Browed Cyan Wolf had fallen before the Celestial Spirit Body Refining Array, enveloped by gusts of wind.

The two beasts were evidently both about to break through, bringing Ye Jingcheng even more joy.

Once the two beasts break through, he himself will have seven Light Demon Kings.

Ye Jingcheng first walked to the side, setting up arrays for the two demons, and then began feeding the Spirit Beast Wood Demon.

After all the treasure light was released, Ye Jingcheng went to the stone chamber.

This was the insect room Ye Jingcheng had set up, where four Hidden-Wing Thunder Rhinoceros Insects lay.

Behind the four Tier Three spirit insects, there were currently as many as fifty young Thunder Rhinoceros Insects.

Unlike ordinary Thunder Rhinoceros Insects, these ones had a tinge of silver light as if their wings were layered with hidden wings.

But clearly, the silver light of these hidden wings was insufficient to provide a real concealment effect.

Ye Jingcheng’s gaze settled on the largest Thunder Rhinoceros Insect at the forefront.

This Thunder Rhinoceros Insect had a sturdy and wide head, with the most intense silver light on its body, and its cultivation aura was impressively at the Tier One Peak, far surpassing the mid-stage and late-stage of the other Tier One Thunder Rhinoceros Insects.

Ye Jingcheng immediately recalled that this was the one he had sensed with five-layered treasure light, capable of advancing to a Two-Horned Thunder Rhinoceros Insect.

Therefore, Ye Jingcheng took special care of this Thunder Rhinoceros Insect, providing it with more treasure light.

To advance five times, even among the spirit beasts of the Ye Family, is rare, let alone this being a spirit insect.

"Roar!"

While Ye Jingcheng was still feeding the insects, a great roar was heard.

The ground seemed to start shaking.

Ye Jingcheng’s face also lit up with joy.

The commotion was so huge, combined with the feedback from the Beast Communication Pattern, that even without looking with his divine sense, he knew the Golden Scale Beast, after years, had finally advanced successfully.

However, such a large commotion is not good for the spirit medicine, nor for the breaking-through demon beasts.

Fortunately, there is an array for protection, otherwise, this roar of the Golden Scale Beast could have quite an impact.

Ye Jingcheng walked out of the insect room and immediately saw the Golden Scale Beast running towards the lake.

It was sticking its head out, looking under the water.

At this moment, besides its particularly robust front legs, the Golden Scale Beast was covered in dense golden scale armor.

On top of its head, two small Qilin Horns protruded, its head resembled a lion and a tiger, its body like a wolf and a leopard, and its horns like a deer.

It truly already had the likeness of a Qilin.

Even though it wasn’t quite like the legendary True Spirit Qilin, in terms of bloodline, it is definitely akin to some Qilin variants.

The Golden Scale Beast stomped on the ground, instantly emitting a rich golden light, causing earth spikes to suddenly rise from the lakebed, directly targeting the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.

Its aura had clearly already broken through to the Mid-stage Fourth Tier, becoming Ye Jingcheng’s second Mid-stage Fourth Tier Spirit Beast.

As the earth spikes surged, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon roared in fury.

It had always considered the Golden Scale Beast to be food.

How could it tolerate being provoked by the Golden Scale Beast?

Both beasts soared into the sky.

The Golden Scale Beast stepped on the void, countless earth spikes sprouting as if these spikes were its thoughts, appearing at will, yet incredibly dangerous.

At the same time, as golden light descended, a gigantic Earth Qilin Hall also landed beneath the Golden Scale Beast’s feet.

Compared to the previous Golden Qilin Hall, this hall was more lifelike, more majestic, as if it truly housed a True Spirit Qilin inside.

Simultaneously, its two horns began to emit spiritual light, causing waves of gravity divine light to rise and fall.

Soon, it enveloped the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, and even it could not break free from this terrifying gravity.

But fortunately, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon spewed out countless cold cones, and unleashed a Profound Cold Storm to cover itself, preventing the Golden Scale Beast’s golden hall from completely suppressing it.

"Roar!" The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon seemed thoroughly enraged, its eyes bursting with ferocity, as its massive flood dragon tail lashed out like a giant whip.

With a rumble, the golden hall was smashed into golden light, dissipating entirely.

The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon also charged toward the Golden Scale Beast, braving the gravity.

However, the closer to the Golden Scale Beast, the stronger its gravity pressure became.

Boom!

The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon had not fully approached before being suppressed by the golden hall.

Yet, it roared once again, its horns releasing spiritual light, as countless water dragon shadows soared into the sky, resisting the golden hall’s complete descent.

Its claws grabbed out, utterly extinguishing the golden hall.

But the Golden Scale Beast had already conjured another Qilin Golden Hall.

Even though the golden hall could not deal with the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, there was no denying that the latter was indeed put at a disadvantage this time.

"Alright, alright!" Ye Jingcheng repeatedly called out.

Making both beasts retreat.

"Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, you see, effort truly pays off, from today onward, work a bit harder." Ye Jingcheng timely reminded.

He was happy to see the two beasts fight, but of course, they must keep it within limits.

Right now, it was quite a good outcome, as Ye Jingcheng also got a good understanding of the two beasts’ combat power.

Both beasts had extremely strong physiques, but the Golden Scale Beast evidently had gravity divine abilities, which restrained close combat.

That was why the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon struggled so much, but if it were a life-or-death battle, even with the Golden Scale Beast’s superior bloodline, it might not necessarily secure an easy victory over the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.

After all, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon’s Profound Cold Storm and Water Dragon Roar divine abilities were extremely powerful.

Plus, the Golden Scale Beast had taken the initiative and unleashed all its skills, which led to such a result.

As expected, after hearing Ye Jingcheng’s words, a trace of crisis finally appeared in the eyes of the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.

It once again crouched at the lakebed, but this time, not to sleep, but to begin practicing its Breathing Technique, drawing spiritual energy toward the lakebed.

The momentum was particularly grand.

Makes Ye Jingcheng extremely satisfied.

"Roar, thank you, master!" The Golden Scale Beast was extremely excited at this moment, once again shrinking to the size of a fox, sycophantically approaching Ye Jingcheng.

In its view, all this success was due to the Advancement Pill given by Ye Jingcheng.

If it weren’t for the Advancement Pill, even using gravity divine abilities required borrowing the golden hall.

But now, its horns alone could emit a vast amount of gravity divine light.

"You performed well this time." Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but praise. With the Golden Scale Beast advancing and breaking through successfully, his own breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Golden Core was also imminent.

Moreover, the Golden Scale Beast’s strength was indeed impressive, and in the future, should he engage in magical combat with someone, with the Golden Scale Beast to assist him,

he was confident that even facing the Late Stage of Golden Core, he could easily vanquish them.

"Master, hasn’t the Red-skinned Monster broken through yet?" the Golden Scale Beast did not forget to ask once more, a little act of revenge that made it feel good, but there was still one more to get back at.

In the past, the Red Flame Fox was too nimble for it to catch, and it got burnt black by its fire.

"The Red Flame Fox hasn’t broken through yet, but I suggest you put in more effort!" Ye Jingcheng took out a Spirit Pill, infused it with some Treasure Light, then spoke with slight exasperation.

The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon was restrained by the gravity light, but the Red Flame Fox was not.

A single spiritual fire from it, and the Golden Scale Beast might end up fleeing helplessly.

However, seeing the look in the Golden Scale Beast’s eyes, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t bear to dishearten it too much.

After consuming the Spirit Pill, the Golden Scale Beast wasted no time, heading onto the Celestial Spirit Body Refining Array, calling upon the Five-Colored Cloud Deer to join it.

It also summoned a Wood Giant to spar with the Golden Scale Beast.

Ye Jingcheng gazed expectantly at the red shadow the Red Flame Fox left in the distance.

With the Golden Scale Beast advancing and mastering the gravity divine abilities, he was somewhat anticipating the divine abilities of the Red Flame Fox.
